Sexual health care services
Book an appointment today with our best-in-class sexual health care providers and pick up same-day prescriptions at your local pharmacy. We encourage a safe space for patient-centered communication so you can always speak candidly and honestly about sex, sexual orientation, or gender.
We’re dedicated to delivering sexual health services in a way that works for you, working together to find you the right fit. Some of our diverse sexual health offerings include:
Birth control
In addition to helping prevent pregnancy, some types of birth control can also help treat certain health problems or provide other health benefits — like making periods lighter and less painful. Birth control isn’t one-size-fits-all.
Sexually transmitted infections (STIs)
Our sexual health providers offer testing, diagnosis, and treatment of sexually transmitted infections (STIs). Regular STI testing and early treatment can help you stay safe and prevent the spread of STIs in our communities.
Pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP)
PrEP is a daily medication that reduces the risk of HIV infection by up to 99%. 95% of our patients pay nothing for PrEP.
Post-exposure prophylaxis (PEP)
PEP are medications taken in emergency situations after a potential exposure to HIV. PEP must be started within 72 hours (3 days) after a possible HIV exposure.
Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)
If you feel ready to begin treatment, we’re here for you. Our sexual health medical providers will explain your treatment options and can refer you to a specialist to provide the monitoring and support you need to help bring HIV down to “undetectable.
Benefits of maintaining your sexual health
Taking care of sexual health enables individuals to take charge of their reproductive health as well as their emotional well-being and mental health surrounding their intimate relationships. Several pieces contribute to staying sexually healthy, some of which include education, safety, and communication, with both healthcare providers and intimate partners. Our board-certified healthcare providers make it easy to maintain your sexual health online from wherever you are, whenever is most convenient for you.
Education
Taking sexual education into your own hands not only helps protect you from unintended pregnancy and STIs, but can also help you learn about sexual preferences and develop healthy intimate relationships. Sexual education empowers individuals to be aware of their sexual rights and remain sexually healthy and safe throughout their lifetime.
Safety
Maintaining your sexual health requires preventing adverse outcomes related to sexual intercourse, such as sexually transmitted infections and unintended pregnancy. For birth control, hormonal methods such as the pill, patch, ring, and IUD, are great options for women who want to have greater control over their reproductive health.
These hormonal contraceptive methods are very effective at preventing unwanted pregnancy when used as prescribed, however, these methods do not protect individuals from the spread of STIs. Our sexual health care providers can help advise you about STI prevention, test for STIs, and prescribe STI treatment.
Communication
If you’re a sexually active individual, it’s vital to keep communication with your doctors and healthcare team. Open communication with your intimate partners also can empower you to have pleasurable and safe sexual experiences. While it may feel uncomfortable to discuss such an intimate topic, open communication with your healthcare provider allows them to provide you with informed, effective care.
You may find it easier and more comfortable to have these conversations with our board-certified sexual health clinicians online. Our online sexual health services offer scheduling flexibility and are easily accessible no matter where you are, making it easy to maintain your sexual health care discreetly, if you prefer.
It is especially important to consult a doctor if you are considering hormonal birth control or suspect exposure to STIs. With an accurate idea of your health background and current lifestyle, our sexual health care clinicians can provide you with the best treatment and preventative options.

Sexual health FAQs
Because of DEA regulations and the increased risk of Subutex abuse, Cpgtelehealth providers mainly prescribe Suboxone. A prescription for Subutex may be given if a patient develops an adverse medication reaction or an allergy to Suboxone. Please get in touch with us personally if you have any more inquiries.
MOUD programs have strict rules that both patients and providers must abide by. These rules are enforced by the DEA, which include no early refills. We encourage you to book an appointment several days before running out of the medication to avoid last-minute pharmacy issues, but we do not authorize refills earlier than the grace period of your individual pharmacy (which is generally between 1-3 days).
In summary, we cannot authorize early refills for the following:
- In cases of lost or stolen medication
- Taking more than the prescribed amount
- Travel-related early refills
We recommend informing your doctor of your travel plans in advance. Request a prescription for less than a month’s supply so that your refill date doesn’t coincide with your travel dates. This will allow you to refill your medication shortly before your trip. If you have additional questions please contact us directly.
